I'm the felonious bastard who's been chiming in on Epstein's untimely demise lately, having a whopping 7 months of Club Fed experience under my belt I felt it was my duty. I explained in earlier posts that I thought suicide was very unlikely and nearly impossible in a SHU cell, and that I don't think anyone "sprung" him...I'm pretty sure he's dead, and not by his own hand.
So I'm following this closer than some folks, I'm watching to see what parts of the story don't add up, and as you all know by now, there's quite a few. I'm guessing someone paid off the guards, like really paid them to take a walk for 10 minutes. A C.O. at the Manhattan MCC got busted last year taking 25 grand to smuggle shit in for some wealthy fuck...these guys don't make a lot of money, and $25,000 cash is a small fortune to them. We know the people who wanted Epstein dead are filthy rich, they wouldn't have had any problem paying MILLIONS to gain access to this guy. On graveyard shift, there were only 4 guards on SHU duty where I was (I doubt NY was much different); and if you'd given each one a suitcase full of c-notes I have no doubt they would have all taken their smoke-break at the same time.
The cameras are all controlled by the C.O. station, a little room in one corner of the unit...the guards split and you turn of the cameras, push another button to unlock a cell, then it's party time.
I had no doubt some of the C.O.s at my place "did favors" for certain inmates. We had a small group of Goodfella types from NY and Boston in there, and they were pretty comfortable...not quite like what you saw in the movie, but they lived pretty good. They had shit smuggled in for them, mostly small shit like tobacco, maybe a phone here and there, all stuff a guard could fit in his lunchbox. Cigarettes were worth up to $20 worth of commissary, EACH...no lie...so a carton had a "street value" of $4000, there was plenty of incentive. Funniest incident I recall was the Goodfellas getting caught with a George Foreman Grill in their cube...always wondered if a C.O. had to stuff that up his ass to get it in.
Anyway, I pulled up Eppy's "Inmate Locater" file just for fun and attached it...good for a chuckle. Looks like you can still put money in his commissary account and send him mail if you so desire.

I did state time in a few different prisons and the drugs going thru there was insane. I saw guys keep heroin habits going while in there, cell phones,etc. The gangs will get friends or family members w/o charges to get jobs as CO’s and since we have the same gangs in all the state prisons it works out for the gang so they can get stuff brought in. They’re making money up in there.

Almost no drugs where I was, at least not that I saw. One time I heard of weed being found in my unit, but it wasn't much more than a couple of roaches.
Was smoking allowed in your place?

No, but people did it because no one really gave a fuck, as long as you weren’t out in the open with it. Same with weed or anything else. The first prison I went to after the receiving prison was a level 1, people would throw shit over the fence for inmates to pick up in the yard, CO’s would bring shit in for people. Some of the CO’s were even related to inmates that were in there. Mostly the blacks were the ones getting stuff brought in. I’ve got friends in the FED right now and some that have gone thru it. It’s completely different from what I’ve heard. Not as many shit heads, better food, etc. I feel sorry for people who work in state prisons. They have to put up with some really fucked up people and they get complacent and stop giving a fuck.
